Gunpowder from Peter & Sons and Yggdrasil beat to quarters in a high-seas naval epic
Leading iGaming publisher Yggdrasil and YGG Masters partner Peter & Sons have shaken up the pirate slot genre with Gunpowder, a battle for oceanic supremacy with a hold full of rich naval-inspired features.
A volatile slot with 10 paylines, Gunpowder promises sticky wilds elevated with respins for the bravest of seadogs. A powerful free spins game sees the Phantom Power feature and retriggers wrapped up in the signature polished animation that Peter & Sons is renowned for.
The theme pits several competing naval vessels against each other in a cutthroat high-stakes battle to decide the ruler of the waves, including ghost ships that use the ethereal power of phantoms to tip the scales in their favour.
Triggered randomly in the base game, Phantom Power comes into its own when a wild lands, initiating a respin. The wild will then battle all high-value symbols surrounding it. The defeated vessel transforms into additional wilds if victorious, with an extra respin awarded.
The main game can also see scatters land on the reels with three or more of them launching the free spins game. Wilds are sticky and remain in play until the bonus round has finished. When all reels include a wild, free spins are retriggered, awarding five extra spins.
Offering the chance at even greater rewards, the Golden Bet empowers players who pay x0.5 extra per bet and increases the chance of getting sticky wilds in the main game or triggering free spins.
Gunpowder is powered by GATI, Yggdrasil’s state-of-the-art technology enabling partners to employ the preconfigured, regulation-ready, standardised development toolkit to consistently produce cutting-edge content followed by rapid distribution.
Zoe Bird, Senior Product & Program Manager at Yggdrasil, said: “Peter & Sons games are unmistakable for their incredibly rich design and attention to detail, not only in their animation but in their feature sets too. Gunpowder continues these standards and broadens our YGG Masters game library with another hit.”
Yann Bautista, Commercial Director & Founder at Peter & Sons, said: “Gunpowder brings the sights and sounds of classic naval battles to the reels! An incredibly fun game, the Phantom Power feature is just one of the highlights that fire a broadside of gameplay into the new slots market. We’re sure it will be the ruler of the high seas!”

Kaizen Gaming, one of the biggest GameTech companies in the world, had an impressive double-win at the SBC Awards Latinoamérica 2024 on the 31st October in Miami, Florida. Awarded ‘Brazilian Market Entrant of the Year’, and ‘Marketing Campaign of the Year’, the two wins follow an impressive year of growth and exposure for Kaizen Gaming, as well as its premium brand Betano, across Latin America and globally.
Betano is rapidly growing its user base and presence in Brazil, serving as the main and title sponsor of Brasileirão Betano and Copa Betano do Brasil. As a founding member of the ANJL and IBJR regulatory bodies, Betano is recognised for its dedication to upholding the highest standards of responsible gaming and integrity. Furthermore, the Betano brand has launched multiple CSR initiatives across the country in partnership with sponsored team, Clube Atlético Mineiro. It also recently launched the “Juntos em Campo” long-term program in cooperation with CBF (Brazilian Football Confederation) to promote initiatives focused on gender equality.
Awarded for the results and creativity of its innovative “Football in America” marketing campaign, Betano successfully introduced Latin America to its “Confia” brand platform by leveraging on its CONMEBOL Copa America
2024 sponsorship. The campaign chimed with the spirit of fans across the continent by celebrating Latin America’s rich football heritage, playfully responding to Kylian Mbappe’s 2022 comments questioning the region’s football quality.
Vangelis Skarkalis, Kaizen Gaming Senior Commercial Director LATAM, said: “Latin America is one of the world’s most dynamic and exciting regions for i-gaming. Being recognised as a leading player in this important market with two wins at the prestigious SBC Awards Latinoamérica is a great honour – especially on the heels of our recent double-win as ‘Operator of the Year’ at both the EGR Operator Awards and SBC Awards. Achieving this success requires an exceptional team of dedicated, ambitious professionals. This award honours everyone’s hard work and commitment to always going above and beyond in delivering the best experiences for our customers not only in Latin America, but worldwide too.”
Amusnet proudly announces its partnership with the Netherlands operator Betcity.nl, marking a key step in strengthening its presence within the Dutch market. This collaboration combines Amusnet’s dynamic gaming content with Betcity.nl’s established reputation for providing exceptional online experiences to Dutch players. The partnership promises to offer an enriched gaming selection while maintaining the highest compliance standards in the Netherlands’ regulated market.
“Teaming up with Betcity.nl represents an exciting and strategic opportunity for Amusnet to bring forward our portfolio to the Dutch market in collaboration with a trusted local brand.
